LIVERPOOL, England (AP) — Everton will host international sport in its new stadium just a few months after it opens.
The club announced Wednesday that a high-profile rugby league match between England and Australia will take place at Everton Stadium on Nov. 1.
The 53,000-seat venue on the waterfront at Bramley-Moore Dock will host Everton’s soccer matches starting next season, replacing the club’s long-time home of Goodison Park.
The new stadium has been staging test events in recent weeks.
“As well as being home to Everton, our new stadium was built to also host world-class sporting and entertainment events,” Colin Chong, Everton’s interim chief executive, said. “Securing an international fixture of this magnitude demonstrates Everton Stadium’s status as one of the U.K.’s leading venues.”
Everton’s new stadium has already been selected as a host venue for the men’s European Championship in 2028.
